What is my zodiac sign?

Choose your birth month and day in the calculator above. It uses the 12 conventional Western tropical zodiac Sun-sign date ranges to return a likely sign instantly. You don't need to create an account or enter your email.

The traditional order begins with Aries, followed by Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces. The cycle starts at the March equinox in tropical astrology, rather than on January 1.

If you were born near a sign's conventional first or last day, a simple month/day calculator may be uncertain. The Sun changes zodiac signs at a precise moment that varies with year and time zone. An exact astronomical birth chart needs birth year, time, and location.

Most January birthdays are Capricorn (approximately December 22–January 19) or Aquarius (approximately January 20–February 18). Enter the exact day rather than relying on the month alone.

February 29 is conventionally Pisces in Western tropical Sun-sign calendars. February 29 occurs only in leap years, and it is supported by this calculator.

Your Sun sign reflects the zodiac position of the Sun at birth; the Moon sign refers to the Moon's position; and the Rising sign (ascendant) is the zodiac sign appearing on the eastern horizon at the time and location of birth. Moon and Rising signs cannot be determined reliably from a month and day alone.

Western Sun signs are usually identified using a birthday date range, not just a month. For example, August birthdays span both Leo and Virgo, while December birthdays span Sagittarius and Capricorn.

Fire signs are Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius; Earth signs are Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn; Air signs are Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius; and Water signs are Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces. Elements are interpretive categories in astrology, not scientific personality types.

In traditional astrology, cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn) are associated with initiating, fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius) with persistence, and mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces) with adaptability.

Not scientifically. Compatibility claims come from astrological interpretation rather than demonstrated relationship prediction. For entertainment, you can explore popular match patterns using our free Soulmate Finder or Love Compatibility Calculator.

For most birthdays, the common sign remains the same. However, exact Sun-sign transitions can land on different local dates depending on year and time zone, so cusp dates may be assigned differently by simplified calendars.

No reliable scientific evidence shows that zodiac signs determine an individual's personality or romantic compatibility. Our readings are created for fun, self-expression, and sharing, not as factual diagnoses or predictions.
